The first-generation Alfa Romeo 147 offers three-door and five-door hatchback bodies. If you regularly carry passengers, the five-door makes rear-seat access easier; your choice of engine, transmission and equipment shapes the rest of the ownership experience.
Your Alfa Romeo 147 engine choice goes hand in hand with the transmission. Selected gasoline examples include the manual 2.0 MT and 3.2 MT, and the robotic 2.0 DSG, all with front-wheel drive in the three-door body. The manuals let you operate the clutch yourself; the robotic transmission automates that task.

When exploring Alfa Romeo 147 trim levels, distinguish the mechanical version from its equipment specification. The three-door 2.0 DSG is offered with a configuration named Distinctive. That name identifies an equipment package; when choosing a car, check its fitted comfort features and options alongside the engine and gearbox.
